We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Litchfield High School has amazing academics with dedicated students and teachers, but also, as a student, I see the students are generally unhappy due to the judgmental atmosphere. The school is predominantly white but everyone is open to new people and ideas.

The teacher's at this school really want their students to succeed. They offer extra help and most of them are very passionate about the subject that they teach. They are a great resource.

There is nothing for kids to do in this town so kids just drink and get high. Plenty of kids come to school high. Teachers give everyone good grades. Students and teachers are...

Absolute joke of a school. Teachers are disconnected from there students, especially in the math department. Communication is atrocious and not reliable. The administration sucks. Overall this school is terrible if you have even the slightest interest in a trade.
